Well, I'd like to lose a newborn calf, but not sure if that will be too much. Right now I want to see how I look once I lose the World's largest ball of tape. I can't believe it, but so far I have lost an elephant's penis!

I am still pre-op but so far I have lost an automobile tire and a guinea pig!  I am still hoping to get rid of a 2 month old horse and a chihuahua!  Anyone want a 2 month old horse??

nothing as exciting as an elephant penis YET, but an AC of 5000btu, not shabs.
